About this file
This is a Question and Answer matrix that addresses contractor inquiries related to a solicitation for Parachute Rigger and Instructor Training Services at Davis-Monthan AFB. The document clarifies key requirements including staffing levels for both the 68th and 48th RQS units. For the 68th RQS, the requirement is for 1 JTAC, 1 WEPTAC, 1 PJ, 3 Master Riggers, and 1 Senior Rigger for 6 months with extension options. The 48th RQS requires 1 WEPTAC, 1 PJ, 1 Master Rigger, and 1 Senior Rigger.
The Q&A provides important clarifications about combat experience requirements (maintaining the requirement for 60 combat strikes for JTAC personnel), overtime policies (up to 4 hours per day during courses, not to exceed 40 hours per week without approval), and jump operation requirements (highly desirable for WEPTAC, JTAC, and PJ positions but not required for riggers). The government will provide PPE for live fire training, and medical instructors are confirmed to perform dive instruction and support training. The document also addresses questions about self-rated scoring matrices and submission requirements.

| Q# | Doc | Pg # | Par. # | Comment/Question | Response/Answer |
| 1 | PWS | 4 | 1.1.3 WEPTAC experience | Would you accept a prior PJ/CRO with the same experience | Most PJ / CRO do not have the experience of demolitions and heavy weaponry. This position focuses on the those types of experience and Small Unit Tactics experience commensorate of ground forces war experience commonly found in Army Ranger, Army Special Forces, Navy SEAL, etc. Some PJ/CRO may have experience in this and we would accept someone with ground tactics, heavy weapons, and demolitions extensive experience. They must have expert knowledge in these areas. |
| 2 | CRM + Instructions | 1 | Experienced JTAC contractors with over 60 Combat Strikes placed on DoD Contracts – Number of JTAC personnel that have worked on DoD contracts that have over 60 combat strike. | Can you reduce the combat Calls to 20 Combat Strikes | No. Combat Strikes are per call for fire strike, not individual separate missions. A busy JTAC may have reached 20 combat strikes in one mission. The need for call for fire must be a repetative experience on more than one occasion. Our training scenarios have multiple aircraft on multiple levels calling fire on multiple targets. |
| 3 | PWS | 26 | Para. 4.27.2, Overtime | Understand up to 4 hours OT per day during courses. QUESTION: Does this apply to all positions? and can you provide estimated OT hours for the year? | The employee will not work more than 40 hours per week without overtime approval. Our scenarios run up to 12 hours depending on a myriad of reasons. We use this because it is often during FMPs that we will break the standard 8 hour days and need to run 4x 10-hour days or 3-12-hour days with a half day after. we cannot forecast OT as this is dependent on student progression, logistics, and unforseen issues in the field. |
| Appendix B Self Rated Scoring Matrix | All cells do not have the forumlas providing scores. Is the government's excel document correct as is? | If there's no formula then cell score shouldn’t be affected by a missing formula. If concerned about final self score, please annotate. | |||
